A. GIVING ADVICE
Giving Advice is to give (someone) a recommendation about what should be
done. The phrase used when wanting to ask someone for advice or
suggestions on what should be done in a good and polite manner.

There are several different structures that you can use when giving advice :

 Should

This is probably the most common of the structures for

giving advice. After should, and its negative - shouldn't -
we use the base form of the infinitive of the verb:

- You should wise up

- We shouldn’t cheat
It is common to use 'I think' and 'I don’t think' with
should:
I think you should put the answers back
She doesn't think they should use them
 
 Had better

This structure is common in spoken English and it is usually used in

the contracted form. After had better, and its negative - had better not,
we use the base form of  the infinitive of the verb

-You'd better return the answers to the lecturer

-You'd better not tell anyone that you found them

 Ought

This is the most formal of the structures used for giving advice, and so
it isn't so common.
 After ought, and its negative - ought not (oughtn't), we use the full
infinitive of the verb:

- You ought to contact the police

- You ought not to cheat in exams

 If I were you

This version of the second conditional is often used when giving

advice, especially in spoken English. Note the use of were with I in the
first clause.
In the second clause, we use would - contracted to d - and wouldn’t.

After would and wouldn’t, we use the base form of the infinitive of the
verb:

 If I were you, I’d give them back to the lecturer

 If I were you, I wouldn’t use the answers

4. Grammar Focus ( that-clause)

We use that as a conjunction to link a verb, adjective or noun with the

following clause.
1. Verb + that-clause
Verbs commonly followed by that include reporting verbs (say, tell,
admit, etc.) and mental process verbs (believe, think, know, hope, etc.):
They said that four million workers stayed at home to protest against the tax.
The survey indicated that 28 per cent would prefer to buy a house through a
building society than through a bank. He knew that something bad had
happened. Do you think that they forgot to pay or that they stole it?

Verb patterns: verb + that-clause
2. Adjective + that-clause
We use be + adjective + that-clause to express opinions and feelings.
Some adjectives commonly used in this way are sure, certain, right, important,
afraid, pleased, sorry, surprised, worried. We can omit thatwith no change in
meaning:
It’s important (that) we look at the problem in more detail.
I’m sure (that) you’ll know a lot of people there.
They were afraid (that) we were going to be late.
3. Noun + that-clause
We use a noun + that-clause to express opinions and feelings, often
about certainty and possibility. We also use that with reporting nouns. Some
nouns commonly used in this way are belief, fact, hope, idea, possibility,
suggestion, statement, claim, comment, argument:
He is also having intensive treatment in the hope that he will be able to train
